"I here declare my unmitigated hatred to Yankee
rule--to all political, social and business connection with the Yankees
and to the Yankee race. Would that I could impress these sentiments, in
their full force, on every living Southerner and bequeath them to every
one yet to be born! May such sentiments be held universally in the
outraged and down-trodden South, though in silence and stillness, until
the now far-distant day shall arrive for just retribution for Yankee
usurpation, oppression and atrocious outrages, and for deliverance and
vengeance for the now ruined, subjugated and enslaved Southern States!

And now with my latest writing and utterance, and with what will be near
my latest breath, I here repeat and would willingly proclaim my
unmitigated hatred to Yankee rule--to all political, social and business
connections with Yankees, and the perfidious, malignant and vile Yankee
race."

Crybully Economics 101: The way to get paid to fix something is
to first destroy it (or threaten to). The more credible the threat, the
more you get paid.

We now have an economy where instead of young people going to college
and learning skills that earn them decent money, they attend politically
correct universities that teach crybully tactics to churn out "social
justice warriors" who rely on "mob-onomics" to try to extort money out
of local employers.

Welcome to the "Fight for 15" crybully
protests which are largely focused on fast food workers who demand $15 /
hour wages for the simple reason that they need 'mo money!
What's the strategy for achieving such wages... do they boost their
skills and value, then professionally negotiate with employers? Nope.
They shout down their opponents and battle with police, believing that
they alone have a unique generational right to bully their way to
"economic justice" by demanding money be transferred out of the paper
thin margins of small business owners and into their own pockets (so
they can buy more pot, of course, 'cuz it's legal and everything).

I know that some of you likely read the title to this post and
thought, “Ugh. Clickbait.” Sadly, the title is the opposite of
clickbait, it is a completely accurate explanation of something that recently occurred to a student studying for their Master’s Degree at England’s Sheffield University.

In September of 2015, Mr. Felix Ngole was in the midst of his studies
as a second-year masters student when he posted a message on his
Facebook page offering support of the unjustly imprisoned American, Kim
Davis. Ngole shared a post that said, “I stand with Kim Davis,” then
commented on the Bible verse shared within the post. The verse came from
the book of Leviticus and it calls homosexuality an “abomination.”

Then in November, the University told Ngole that he would need to
attend a mandatory meeting with the school to discuss his Facebook post.
At that meeting he was referred to a school committee which would rule
on his “fitness” to continue in his coursework. That committee decided
that Ngole was unfit because his actions had “transgressed boundaries which are not deemed appropriate for someone entering the social work profession.”
Their decision meant his immediate expulsion from the school. After
facing pushback for their decision, the committee said that it wasn’t
based on Ngole’s beliefs, but on his decision to post them publicly.

Unbound delegates in Louisiana are fuming over media reports that they have decided to back Ted Cruz over Donald Trump in the presidential GOP primary, calling them untrue.

Trump
edged out Cruz in the Louisiana primary that was held March 5, though
the margin was close enough that each candidate ended up taking 18
delegates.

But
earlier this month, The Wall Street Journal and other media outlets
reported that the five state party leaders who will attend the
Republican convention, and the five delegates who were formerly pledged
to Marco Rubio, were planning to throw their support to Cruz.

That would give Cruz a resounding delegates victory in the state despite losing to Trump by 4 points.
Trump
promptly declared that he’d sue the state party and seek to have the
delegates disqualified over what he described as a rigged process
designed to block him from the nomination.

AMONG the more melancholy aspects of the genteel world we live in is a
slow decline in the enjoyment that men once found in the combat of
ideas, free and unrestrained. Competition of any sort, indeed, seems to
be regarded these days, in our schools and elsewhere, as somehow not in
very good taste. Under the curious doctrines of the Fair Trade Act,
vigorous salesmanship is “unfair,” and retailers are enjoined against
discommoding their fellows. Mr. Stevenson’s criticism of the
administration’s foreign policy, during the last presidential campaign,
was not that the policies were so very wrong: They were not
“bi-partisan.” With a few robust exceptions, our writers paint in
pastels; our political scholars write a sort of ruffled-sleeve,
harpsichord prose. We duel with soft pillows, or with buttoned foils;
our ideas have lace on them; we are importuned to steer, with
moderation, down the middle of the road.

These chamber music proprieties I acknowledge, simply to say, now,
that the essay which follows should not be misunderstood. May it please
the court, this is not a work of history; it is a work of advocacy. The
intention is not primarily to inform, but to exhort. The aim is not to
be objective; it is to be partisan.

The Syrian-origin Swedish passport holder arrested in Belgium last
week for his involvement in the Brussels bomb attacks is a former poster
boy for Sweden’s efforts at integrating migrants into their society.

Now accused of murder, and captured on CCTV cameras carrying bags
which contained the explosive devices which killed 32 civilians,
Islamist Osama Krayem had once been hailed as a model of integration. A
former employee of the city of Malmo, at the age of 11 Osama starred in a
documentary about migrants in Sweden.

During a presentation entitled “Parents: The First Educators”,
Portland Community College’s “whiteness history month” delves into the
task of indoctrinating children at young ages.

First off, they finally actually define “whiteness”: “This is the
definition of whiteness that didn’t really start until the early 90s,
actually using the term ‘whiteness’ and white power.

It’s an
academic term used to describe the social and political construct of
white identity and relates to race and cultural norms. It examines the
systems of normalcy related to these privileges and advantages. So there
are privileges and advantages to being white in this society. So this
is a term, and this is the term that we use to investigate white power
privilege here at PCC this month“

As “whiteness history month” progresses at Portland Community
College, the question that has been posed over and over is “how do we
dismantle whiteness?”

Well, during one of the sessions on Tuesday, April 12th, the speaker accidentally let it slip that getting rid of white people is the answer.

A participant began talking about her mom: “My mom is white, and she
has three mixed race children, and uhmm, i was just thinking, like, just by having mixed race children, and like, having been married to a black man, in a lot of ways, she, like, gave up some of the white privilege.” To which the speaker answered “Right… And that kind of connects to my question, how can we dismantle white privilege”

Bernie
Sanders campaign message has resonated with millions of young
activists, especially those who came of age during the Occupy movement.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Like a shark who smells blood in the water, far left Liberals after 8
years of Obama have gotten a snootful of ‘free stuff’, and they want
more of it. A lot more.

America’s young Democrats want full-on-Communism
and nothing else will satisfy them. Hillary better get busy stealing
more delegates because Bernie is absolutely gaining on her.

“Bernie! Bernie! Bernie!” came the chanting. When Brooklyn’s native son walked through the arch at Washington Square Park he was greeted by one of the largest crowds of his presidential campaign. Bernie Sanders,
the 74-year-old socialist commie Democrat from Vermont, whose rabble-rousing
campaign has unexpectedly complicated Hillary Clinton’s path to the
party’s nomination, strode to the podium and looked out.

The statement came when a VA dentistry chief was asked if being a
veteran helps someone get a dentist job in the agency. His response was
“not really. And thank God,” The Daily Caller News Foundation recently
discovered in a court filing.

Being a scout master in the Boy Scouts would do more to help someone
get a top job at the VA than serving in the armed forced, Dr. Gonzalo
Solis Sanchez of the VA Caribbean Medical Center said.

He was speaking in a July 2014 deposition in an Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission complaint brought by a dentist who is a veteran.

Documents that the State Department released Thursday prove that Hillary Clinton was fully aware that the Benghazi attack was preplanned as early as the day after the compound was overrun by terrorists.

The conservative political watchdog group Judicial Watch obtained a transcript of telephone call between the then-secretary of state and then-Egyptian Prime Minister Hisham Kandil.

“We know the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film,” Clinton told Kandil. “It was a planned attack – not a protest.”

New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton made no bones about his hatred
of guns following the shooting death of his former player, Will Smith,
who was killed following a suspected road-rage incident Saturday evening
in the city’s Lower Garden District.

“I hate guns,” he told USA Today Sports in a phone interview. “I find myself leaning to the right on some issues. But on this issue, I can’t wrap my brain around it.”

Payton,
who won the Super Bowl in 2010, seemed to not care if his comments on
one’s Constitutional right to keep and bear arms offends football fans
or Louisiana gun owners.

“So be it,” he said, when asked if those comments might make him unpopular amongst Bayou State residents.

“I’ve
heard people argue that everybody needs a gun,” he said. “That’s
madness. I know there are many kids who grow up in a” hunting
environment. I get that. But there are places, like England, where even
the cops don’t have guns.”

Tommy Robinson appeared at Peterborough Magistrate’s Court this morning for his trial in the assault
battery case against him. Seneca III was present in the gallery, and
sent a series of brief emails on what happened, all of which arrived
before I turned on my computer this morning.
Here’s the sequence of events in brief (times BST):

Communism did kill, Courtois and his fellow historians
demonstrate, with ruthless efficiency: 25 million in Russia during the
Bolshevik and Stalinist eras, perhaps 65 million in China under the eyes
of Mao Zedong, 2 million in Cambodia, millions more Africa, Eastern
Europe, and Latin America–an astonishingly high toll of victims. This
freely expressed penchant for homicide, Courtois maintains, was no
accident, but an integral trait of a philosophy, and a practical
politics, that promised to erase class distinctions by erasing classes
and the living humans that populated them.

Courtois and his contributors
document Communism’s crimes in numbing detail, moving from country to
country, revolution to revolution. The figures they offer will likely
provoke argument, if not among cliometricians then among the
ideologically inclined. So, too, will Courtois’s suggestion that those
who hold Lenin, Trotsky, and Ho Chi Minh in anything other than contempt
are dupes, witting or not, of a murderous school of thought–one that,
while in retreat around the world, still has many adherents. A
thought-provoking work of history and social criticism, The Black Book
of Communism fully merits the broadest possible readership and
discussion.

Via Mike "Here is the reason not seen.It is spelled KOCH and pronounced as in coke.

1. Megyn Kelly and Trump met for an hour in trump's NY office today and apparently made peace. This was probably suggested by Fox.

2. Trump is surging in NY, PA,, MD, CN and WV polls, while Cruz is doing poorly and running behind Kasich in several. National Fox GOP poll shows Trump up again to 45, with Cruz dropping 11 points, perhaps related to Colorado Convention uproar, although it was not his fault Colorado had a Convention. His remarks on "NY values" are also coming home to roost. He is now 18 points behind Trump at 27. Kasich is picking up most of his lost and is only 2 points behind at 25.

3. Polls also show Bernie is showing Clinton weaknesses and driving up her negatives.

Bernie, however, is locked out of nomination by super delegates and that is going to hurt Clinton in general election.

4. KOCH bros. decide to split from Stop Trump to favorable to Trump and will probably be using their big PAC money against Clinton and for Trump. A lot of the Stop Trump is apparently following KOCH lead.

5. Establishment thinking beginning to rule out suicidal stop Trump even if he is near 1237 Convention votes.

6.KOCH bros. are libertarian on immigration and much more big business enterprise than small business oriented. they have just decided that Trump is probably going to win the GOP nomination and trying to stop him would now be a trainwreck.

7. Bottom line 24/7 anti-Trump stops at Fox and probably moderates at some others.

Via Billy "The last bastion of the
South`s noble & honorable military schools falls (may) to political
correctness."

The Citadel is considering a request from an admitted student that
she be allowed to wear a hijab in keeping with her Muslim faith, a move
that would be an unprecedented exception to the school’s longstanding
uniform requirements.

If the request for the traditional Muslim
hair covering is granted, it apparently would be the first exception
made to the Citadel’s uniform, which all cadets at the storied public
military college in South Carolina are required to wear at nearly all
times. (At beaches, for example, college rules stipulate that, “Cadets
will change into appropriate swimwear upon arrival and change back into
uniform when departing.”) A spokeswoman said that to her knowledge, in
its nearly 175-year history, the school has never granted a religious,
or other, accommodation that resulted in a change to the uniform.

As
word spread on social media, students, alumni and others responded
strongly to the idea of an exception being made at an institution where
uniformity, discipline and adherence to rules are defining values, where
loyalty to the corps is paramount and individual preferences are
trivial.

Remembrance

To die for one’s country is not only an act of bravery, it is THE act of bravery. For soldiers, it is just an extension of their military career, a part of their duty. As leaders have asked their soldiers to sacrifice themselves for the good of the society, it is only right for leaders to go through the same motion. They should practice what they have preached.

As war is seen as a noble act, tu sat serves as redemption in case of defeat. It is also a way to tell the enemy: “You might have won the battle/war but you don’t deserve to win because you don’t have the chinh nghia (just cause).” And it is not only just cause: it is the moral belief that the cause they are fighting for deserves their total sacrifice.

My second great grandfather was killed in action on May 3, 1863 at the Battle of Chancellorsville.
=============================
My great grandfather and great uncle knew all the men in the "Civil War Requiem" video as they were part of the 53rd NC which was the sole unit defending Fort Mahone. (Fort Mahone was named "Fort Damnation" by the Yankees) *Handpicked men of the 53rd (My great grandfather was one of these) made the final, night assault at Petersburg in an attempt to break Grant's line. This was against Fort Stedman which was a few miles to the slight northeast. They initially succeeded, but reinforcements drove them back. This video is made from photographs which were taken the day after the 53rd evacuated the lines the night before to begin the retreat to Appomattox. I have many more pictures taken by the same photographer, one of these shows a 14 year old boy and the other is the famous picture of the blond, handsome soldier with his musket.
===========================
*General Gordon promised the men a gold medal and 30 days leave if they accomplished their task and many years after the War my great grandfather wrote General Gordon, who was then governor of Georgia about this incident. They exchanged several letters which I have framed. See first link below.

Great Grandfather Koonce

He was a drummer boy in the WBTS, survived the War only to die a few years later. He was caught in an ice storm on his way home, but instead of seeking shelter, continued on his horse until the end. His clothes had to be cut off and he died a few days later.
